Survive on a Deserted Island With the Villainous Young Lady

Returning to the beach, Chester carefully checked Monia’s ankles.

“Well, it’s not broken, it’s a little sprained. It’ll be okay if you stay still. You should refrain from moving your ankles too much.”

“What nonsense are you talking about, you livestock! It hurts so much! She must have broken her ankle!”

“What are you saying now?”

Then, Chester tapped Monia’s ankle with his finger.

“Argh!”

“What are you doing?!”

“Anyway, stay calm. Of course, since I can’t work in the meantime, I won’t give you water or anything to eat.”

“What?!”

“Isn’t it natural? If you don’t work, you shouldn’t eat. Or if you want to eat, then help by doing what you can without using your feet.”

“I have a noble purpose that I must fulfill! Why should I help you against my own goals! You must devote yourself to me!”

“Ugh.”

I thought that she would have gotten a little better, but except for the disappearance of the gloomy, and silent walking, there was no improvement.

“What is this purpose?”

“Of course taking revenge on those who betrayed me! And on my Family and kingdom too! I can’t forgive them!”

“ah… … . No, that’s okay.”

“Something? Stinks here.”

 ”Huh?”

“Nothing.”

Revenge?

Chester thought that would be impossible.

It’s not that revenge against the kingdom is impossible.

But to return to the kingdom, you have to travel half of the globe but do you think that anyone can return there alive

Yeah, it is like that

Their kingdom is a great power, stronger than the neighboring kingdoms.

However, it is only possible because the royal family and the nobility kept each other in check and did not quarrel, but joined forces to raise the national power.

And what made it possible was the ducal family, the head of the aristocratic faction, and the royal family had been marrying and mixing blood for generations.

But now it’s different.

‘Because the stupid prince broke the engagement. That too unilaterally, even citing with the commoners, is the reason.’

The only engagement between the royal family and the duke in each other’s names is unilaterally broken by a prince or something.

Without even consulting the king, he did it on his own, even proudly at a banquet in front of the children of other noble families.

I can’t be harmed any more than my time working there.

No matter how stupid he is, he is a prince, and so his words are those of the royal family.

If you harm them and make them apologize, the royal family’s face will fall to the bottom and the aristocratic faction can stand on top of the royal family.

In the end, the king had to bite his lips and eat dirt to defend the prince and sacrifice Monia and the ducal family.

‘There’s no way that greedy duke would give up on that opportunity.’

The duke saw the opportunity and isolated Monia.

Most likely, the royal family made an excuse that they were blackmailed and forcefully cut off their connection.

The nobles will gather around the ‘poor duke’ who was betrayed by the royal family and forced to abdicate his daughter.

‘And there will be a coup. The duke would want to wear the crown himself.’

Monia’s abdication, which would not have happened originally, only happened because of the Duke’s greed to claim the crown.

It’s quiet for now, but it’s certain that war will break out in the kingdom soon.

The royal family and the nobles who followed the royal family.

Dukes and nobles who follow them too.

In the meantime, nobles will go and join hands with foreign kingdoms to benefit themselves, or join hands individually to get more power.

We will also have to look out for other kingdoms that have the chance to attack the powerful kingdom to expand their territories.

‘In short, The country will be devastated.’

What about the prince and his commoner? Will they regret that this happened because of them?

Chester thought no.

‘If you have a brain that knows the consequences of such a relationship, then you won’t do that stupid thing.’

Chester realized that there are fools far beyond common sense in this world.

And, Chester’s eyes looked at Monia not with the gaze that looked at the daughter of the duke’s family but the way you look at a commoner

“What are those eyes? I feel bad.”

“Ah…”

“It’s nothing.”

I was just thinking about an idiot.

‘It must be the king, he will regret doing this to me.’

He should have thought of another solution to save the royal family, even if it meant losing a little more face

But he had to give up on the idea of preserving the face of the royal family and make a small sacrifice.

It will still have its problems, but at least it is better than a war that would destroy the kingdom.

‘The reason why the king didn’t do that, must be because of his greed.’

Chester, who worked as a butler for the duke’s family, knows this all too well.

The moment they have power and money, the smart brain, sharp intuition, and courage that allowed them to make bold decisions that brought them that money and power is what makes them greedy for more money and power.

And that money and power is what makes people show their ugly side!

‘Well, that’s okay.’

Chester had no intention of returning to that kingdom anyway.

If his parents were alive, he would go back and hide his identity and past information, but his parents died three years ago when they were attacked by bandits during a drought.

‘But I still need to get some money.’

If I escape this island and go to another kingdom and settle there comfortably, I would still need some money.

‘Should I start doing mercenary work if I actually escape?’

“…”

While Chester thought about those things, Monia was staring at him.

And Chester’s hands moved skillfully, tying the log to the palm tree, while his face looked intently at something.

Using two trees and the palm tree in the forest as poles, then he used them to tie the logs together to form a triangle.

As a bonus, there was a risk of death if the coconut fell, so I picked all the coconuts hanging from the palm tree in advance.

And after making a triangular frame, then weave twigs and ropes on top of it to make a floor.

After completing the floor of the shelter, Chester lay down on the floor and checked the angle of the roof to effectively block the sunlight.

“…”

And now weaving the branches together to make the frame of the roof.

After firmly fixing the frame of the roof, then palm leaves were placed on it to complete the roof.

“Wow, so beautiful.”

After the roof was completed, Chester, who was surprised, then smiled in satisfaction at the unexpectedly well-built shelter.

Because it is made off the floor, you can avoid hot geothermal heat during the day and the risk of losing your body heat to the cold ground when the sun disappears.

In addition, if the palm leaves are piled up at an angle, where even if it rains, it will flow down on the palm leaves and effectively block the rain.

“… Growl!

And, after completing the shelter, Chester, who felt a little relaxed, felt hungry.

‘I’ll need to find something to eat.’

When Chester finished the shelter, monia was startled and tried to stand up as well.

“Ouch!”

“Don’t move around too much”

Chester said that and went into the forest, and Monia, who was left alone, looked at the place Chester had left and then looked at the materials he had left after making the shelter.

“Bad guy.”

Monia muttered.

“How dare you leave me under the scorching sun like this and disappear? Does this make sense? Bad guy. Devil. He must be the devil. Why would anyone do this to me?”

Monia muttered that for a long time while glancing at the forest where Chester had disappeared with an uneasy look.

“It’s really too much for me.”

With that said, Monia carefully brought the ingredients Chester had left near the branch.

Chester said that. Nothing here can be solved by crying.

Then he left her alone.

At that time, Monia also realized.

That you have to learn to do things by yourself if you want to survive here.

Water, food, and even a shelter are simply much harder to acquire.

Just because you don’t like it, you can’t just simply tear down a building that has already been built and build a new one.

To escape the sunlight on this hot sandy beach, you have to build a shelter to live in.

Fortunately, Monia watch the whole process of Chester building the shelter.

‘You just need to see it once, then you can do the same! as you can see! I even got water from the bamboo earlier!’

The logs were used up by Chester in building his shelter, but he thought it would be better if he made a roof out of sticks and palm leaves.

However, Monia didn’t know.

“aaah!! It’s not going well!”

It is very difficult to do something that you just watch one time.

* * * * * 

Chester drove the heel of his shoe into the barks of a dead tree to open a gap, then split open the tree with force.

“Oh, is this a joke?”

However, no matter how much he checked the dead tree, no insects to eat were found.

However, the harvest was quite good.

There were quite a few fruits that had fallen near the tree to eat.

Fruits are not enough to fill the necessary nutrients of the human body, but it was good to appease hunger right now and gain the strength to move.

“…”

Chester, who ate three or four pieces of fruit that had fallen on the ground, moved his feet more vigorously than before.

‘I can hear the birds singing. Sarah. what do you want to try, Shall we make a slingshot?’

When Chester was a child, he used to run around the fields with a slingshot that his father made for him as a toy that he would use to play and hunt birds and rabbits.

‘Look, I caught it.’

I once proudly sold the rabbits I had caught to the butcher, but now that I think about it, it was something you could not sell as a commodity.

The kind butcher must have bought the rabbit like how you would give pocket money to a child.

‘Can I still do it like I used to?’

Chester went to the tree he had just found, while recalling the nostalgic past.

When the bark of the tree was pounded with a stone and then peeled off, the skin like bark came off.

After carefully splitting the shells into thin strips, he gathered some of the shells together and began to twist the rope.

Fold the bundle of rope in half, hold one end, twist, and twist.

After braiding, take the untwisted side of the skin, twist again, and braid.(1)

At first, he had some difficulties, but Chester quickly became proficient as he recalled his past memories, and he soon made two long ropes slingshot.

Next, he tore off the inside pocket of the butler’s suit. Scratching at the stitches of the butler’s suit with the stone, he could easily tear off the pockets of his handsome butler’s uniform.

After making holes at both ends of the pocket with a pointed stone, pass two braided ropes through it.

Then, by using tree bark to tie the rope and the pocket tightly, the pocket was shaped to hold stones.

“Good.”

Chester, who made an opening at the end of one rope and put his finger through it, threw several stones at a tree as a target.

‘Do you ever find little stones stuck in your pocket?’

Stones fly from the slingshot slower than Chester had expected, and the accuracy is low.

‘It can’t be helped.’

There is no way to make a proper slingshot, so I just have to endure the inconvenience.

Chester made a slingshot, and took a few stones to use as bullets, extra ropes, and barks, then started hunting in earnest.

[T/L: Note  -“braid” braiding, in textiles, machine or hand method of interlacing three or more yarns or bias-cut cloth strips in such a way that they cross one another and are laid together in diagonal formation, forming a narrow strip of flat or tubular fabric.]
